On the onset of the skin condition:

"It’s weird, I never had such problems before. It began 4 years before my last season and it kept intensifying each year. I started noticing patches of irritated skin, especially in places where gear wraps up around the body like elbow pads etc…It started itching and later became so unbearable that I was scratching it till it was bloody. My wife was grabbing my hands…I couldn’t sleep in short sleeves since my bed was all bloody and my wife had to wash sheets constantly. Then the doctors gave me the meds which I took to keep playing during my last year.”

Pick a different bar.
What's he going to say?

"I never had any intention of playing after my base salary dropped to $1 million per season"

Those super long term contracts all turned out exactly as predicted the day they were signed. Pretty crazy.
